The solution was heated in a sealed tube to 100° C. for 18 h, cooled to room temperature and diluted with ether. The organic layer was washed twice with saturated aqueous NaHCO3, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. Purification by silica-gel chromatography (10% ethyl acetate in hexane) provided 5-tert-butyl-2-methyl-3-nitro-pyridine (388 mg, 75%) as colorless oil.
